FVIII/IgH-deficient double-knockout mice do not develop anti-FVIII antibodies during long-term exposure
Feb. 11, 2025
Mouse models for hemophilia A are commonly generated by factor VIII (FVIII) knockout, however, these mice rapidly develop anti-FVIII antibodies during repetitive FVIII administration. To overcome this preclinical research challenge, investigators from Octapharma AG and affiliated organizations developed a new model unable to produce antibodies but otherwise not immunosuppressed.
